The Adansi Traditional Council has called on the government to develop the Sikaman Brofoyedru helicopter crash site in the Adansi Akrofuom District of the Ashanti Region into a national monument and tourist attraction to honour the memory of the eight navy officers and politicians who lost their lives.

The fatal crash occurred on August 6, 2025, when a Ghana Armed Forces helicopter went down in the Dampia Range Forest Reserve near Brofoyedru-Sikaman, killing everyone on board.

On Saturday, members of the council visited the crash site to perform final cleansing rituals for residents and volunteers who assisted in retrieving the remains of the fallen officers.
